Hi! I'm Aaliyah, a dependable and compassionate caregiver pursuing my Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at UMass Boston. I work full-time as a Mental Health Specialist at McLean Hospital and have over three years of experience supporting children and adolescents in educational and behavioral health settings. I provide a safe, engaging, and structured environment where children feel supported, encouraged, and have fun. Whether it's homework help, creative activities, outdoor play, or bedtime routines, I adapt to each family's needs. I'm patient, responsible, and communicate openly with parents so they always have peace of mind. My goal is to build trusting relationships with both children and families while providing care you can truly rely on.
Aaliyah cared for our three children, including one with autism who is nonverbal, ADHD, and Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD). Finding someone we could truly trust wasn’t easy, but Aaliyah exceeded every expectation. She was incredibly patient, calm, and understanding, even during challenging moments. She took the time to learn each of our children’s personalities and needs and always made them feel safe, respected, and cared for. Her communication with us was excellent, and we always felt comfortable knowing our children were in such capable hands. She brought structure, kindness, and so much compassion into our home. Our kids absolutely loved her, and we couldn’t recommend her more highly. Any family would be lucky to have her.
